    This would be huge. Kingsburry checks all of Tomlin's Boxes for the OC Position. This would be someone to come in and completely take over the offense from Tomlin.


    I don't hold out much hope, as I don't see the Steelers paying Top of the Market prices for someone like Kliff. Prove me wrong Mr. Rooney and let me read about him flying in to Pittsburgh for an interview soon, and not just a phone conversation.

    I have no confidence that they’ll pay the premium for a guy like him, but that would be a slam-dunk hire to say the least.

    I'm suspicious of his offense working at this level. He's a great coach but should stick to the college game. If he's hired then I'm pretty sure Kenny is gone and we either trade for Fields or draft a Penix. Mason is probably more suited to play in the Air Raid. I'd rather get Zac Robinson tbh.

    Part of me is intrigued by the prospects, but have major concerns about his usage of 10 personnel. To put it another way the lack of a Tight End

    I'm intrigued by watching him run the diamond pistol in short yardage situations. There's so much you can run out of that formation and with Harris, Warren and Heyward in the backfield you can run old school wing t and confuse tf out of a defense.

    Helped develop Mahomes, Case Keenum, Baker Mayfield and Johny Manziel at the college level has to account for something. His biggest mistake was thinking his spread offense works at the NFL level.

    I’m intrigued. Would be a plus for Kenny as it would force more man coverage. Plus with everyone spread out and DB’s backs to the QB they could make use of Kennys athleticism.

    Honestly, if Kliff is the OC, we might as well trade Kenny while we have a chance. He's not a fit in that offense whatsoever.

    How do you figure that? Kenny struggles with zone, Kingsbury forces teams into man coverage. That’s one huge benefit right there.

    And what Mahomes says here, I think he’d be very good for Kenny.
